Best Coffee-Shop Swaps

Looking for a pick-me-up? You've come to the right place. Behold, our greatest coffee-shop-swap creations -- all the low-calorie, highly decadent coffee drinks you can imagine. Enjoy!

Natural Whipped Topping Find! Truwhip the Natural Light

Do you love whip-topped coffee drinks but wish there were a guilt-free, all-natural topper? We found one! A 2-tbsp. serving of Truwhip the Natural Light has just 25 calories and 1.5g fat (PointsPlus® value 1*). Nice! If you can only locate original Truwhip, its stats aren’t bad either. Just watch those portions. Click to find! (They’ll be in the freezer aisle.)

Ever tried mixing malted milk powder into your iced coffee? NEWSFLASH: It's AMAZING. This is the kind of flavor combo that's a little harder to find at coffee shops, so enjoy your super-exclusive concoction. P.S. Unsweetened cocoa powder is a terrific ingredient for anything that needs a boost in the chocolate department; each teaspoon has only about 5 calories.

Zazzle up your blended coffee drink with shredded coconut! This is no average cup of joe. We've been honing our Swappuccino skills for years now and practically have it down to an art form. And simply toasting those coconut shreds in a skillet REALLY brings out the flavor. What are you waiting for? Get swappin'!

Never thought to put white chocolate into your coffee? Give it a try! Warning: You may not be able to STOP thinking about this combo once you've tried it. And there's just something about starting the day with a really gorgeous cup of coffee that makes everything that comes after it a little better...

This is one of our classic swaps for the Starbucks Frappuccino. Sure, you can get light versions at the 'Bucks, but if you like to sip these regularly, you'll save a lot of cash taking the DIY route. And this recipe is SO easy to make -- it's all about having the right sweet 'n creamy ingredients to boost your coffee with vanilla goodness. Yummm...

OK, so there's no actual coffee in this one, but it's too tasty to leave off the list. Plus, the original cup that inspired our cocoa swap came from a coffee shop, so technically it qualifies. We can't imagine you'll complain -- it's got caramel mixed in AND drizzled on top! The original is gone from Starbucks, but our recipe will never fade away...

Black-Forest-flavored iced coffee is the kind of thing you might assume wouldn't work if you didn't taste it with your own mouth. Well, rustle up some sugar-free cherry syrup, because coffee + chocolate + cherry = awesome! (HG Tip: Cost Plus World Market is a good place to find lots of sugar-free Torani flavors.)

There's a reason that people freak out and flock to coffee shops during pumpkin season: Pumpkin lattes ROCK. With this swap, you can not only indulge any time of year, but you can do so for way fewer calories and fat grams. Bonus: Ours has ACTUAL pumpkin in it!

Time for one more frosty blended treat. Don't be scared by the pairing of berry and coffee flavors -- it totally works. There's a reason this drink exists, and that reason is people LOVING the original (but now gone) Starbucks version. Blend one up at home ASAP.
